We’re back and up and running.
We are booked up this weekend so get in touch if you would like a different date.
HERE’s WHAT TO EXPECT ON A TYPICAL DAY
A typical day starts at 9:30, after a quick safety talk we leave the marina, get the sails up and head across Swansea Bay.
We sail down the Gower coast before dropping the anchor in one of the bays for a picnic lunch in the cockpit. There is also time for a swim (entirely optional) before sailing back to Swansea. The day usually ends around 17:30 (this is obviously an estimate and depends on the conditions).
You are welcome to get involved with the sailing, raising sails, setting sails and steering the boat or you can relax while I do all the work.
The picnic lunch is provided along with tea, coffee and soft drinks. You are welcome to bring beer and wine, there is always room in the fridge.
The boat can take a maximum of 7 passengers but this can feel crowded. I recommend up to 5 as an ideal number.
We only sail in suitable weather (when the forecast is dry and winds are less than 15kts) so all bookings are dependent on the weather. I contact you in the evening two days before when a reliable forecast is available.
To book please text me on 07850 382169, including your preferred date and the number of people in the group.
